HOW TO MAKE HOMEMADE TOMATO SAUCE and BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM

Queues to the grocers and supermarkets do take up to an hour, hence I do stock up on basics to limit the number of trips I make. With that been said I bought loads of Tomatoes as I planned on making my own Tomato sauce, which can last up to a month in the fridge.

I did include 2 West African spices (Grains of Selim and Prekese) to the Tomato sauce. They do add both a sweet and musky black peppercorn like flavour to the sauce and helps boost ones immune system. 

You  can omit them altogether if you don’t have them.

INGREDIENTS 

2kg of fresh Tomatoes 

4 large Red Peppers 

50g of fresh Ginger

2 tablespoonfuls of Aniseed 

3 Bay leaves

5-10 Grains of Selim pods or 1 teaspoonful of freshly mulled Black Peppercorns

1 Prekese (Tetrapleura tetraptera)

20ml of Olive oil

Salt to taste
